1985 Porsche 944 review from North America
"One of the most underrated cars ever made and pure Porsche excitement!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear hatch seal leaks and release inoperative.
Sunroof inoperative.
Taillights leak.
Power steering rack leaks.
General comments?
This car is the epitome of performance and handling.
Corners like its on a roller coaster track.
Rear seat area is pretty much useless for seating, but good cargo space when seat folded down.
